A New Film Shines a Light on Women Conductors
  + stars: | 2023-06-03 | by ( Farah Nayeri | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
“Girls can’t do that.”That’s what 9-year-old Marin Alsop was told by her violin teacher when she expressed interest in a conducting career. The documentary spotlights a profession — conducting — which historically has all but excluded women. In the film, Ms. Contreras, 39, a documentary producer making her directorial debut, delivers an up-close-and-personal portrayal of the contestants as they rev up for a competition whose judges include Ms. Alsop and Ms. Gibault. The five contestants profiled in the film were from France, Germany, the United States, Greece and Poland. In a recent video interview, Ms. Contreras recalled the making of the movie and the challenges faced by women on the concert podium.
